Using this nightstand is easy. You can place it next to your bed. Use the storage drawer to keep small items like remotes, jewelry, or chargers. Just pull the drawer open using the brushed brass handles. The full - extension glides make it easy to access everything inside. The lower shelf is great for storing books, magazines, or extra blankets. As for maintenance, simply wipe the matte white surface with a soft, dry cloth regularly to keep it clean. Avoid using harsh chemicals that might damage the lacquer finish. Since it comes with a tip kit, make sure to install it properly to prevent the nightstand from tipping over. And remember, this item is non - returnable because it's oversized, but if you notice any damages or defects, reach out to us and we'll send you a replacement.
